SteelSeries ZBoard


$50.00 Released January, 2010

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Lots of customization options - supports multiple profiles, macros and keysets. Great for left-handed gamers - has many extra keys on the right-hand side of the keyboard. Unique modular design - each section of the keyboard can be rearranged to the user's preference.

The Cons:The keys take a fair amount of pressure to press down. Poor construction - feels cheaply made. Uses half-size function keys.

The SteelSeries ZBoard is a gaming keyboard that can be customized with interchangeable keysets, each designed for a specific game. A precursor to the Shift, the Zboard lacks audio ports, but does support anti-ghosting up to 7 simultaneous keystrokes, customized user profiles, and the creation of complex macros via the included Z Engine.
